Hi all,
As part of gnome-shell 43.alpha (already in rawhide), mutter has bumped its soname from libmutter-10.so.0 to libmutter-11.so.0.
The following packages are still built against libmutter-10.so.0 and need fixing/porting to switch over, or maybe a compat package for the elementary desktop:
elementary-greeter-6.1.0-1.fc37.src.rpm gala-6.3.1-3.fc37.src.rpm gnome-kiosk-42.0-1.fc37.src.rpm wingpanel-3.0.2-4.fc37.src.rpm
(They are all FTBFS currently with new mutter.)

How extensive the API changes are between libmutter-10 and libmutter-11?
Porting the elementary-greeter and gala packages from libmutter-9 to libmutter-10 was comparatively easy (though with some loss of window management functionality), but earlier ports were rather bad and took a long time.
If it's an easy port, we'll probably not need another compat package, but if it will take longer, then it's back to dealing with a compat package. And I'd rather not do that again, because that means backporting stuff from the 43.x branch to keep things working, i.e. patches for compatibility with the latest gsettings-desktop-schemas, or gnome-settings-daemon ...

Florian or Jonas (both CCd now) should be able to answer this better than I can, although I am not sure they are around right now (it's GUADEC in Mexico this week).

Thanks! For now, I've opened tickets with the affected upstream projects ...

Next time can you please consider gnome-kiosk mandatory to be fixed before sending the bump to Rawhide? It is on the compose critical path:

To be fair, I always forget too. :D
